Hotels near Tordenskiolds gate 7 AS, Oslo

Arrived on our ferry from Copenhagen before lunch so left luggage and wandered until checkin was possible. All so good so far. When we came to check in we asked to make sure the room didn’t have feather bedding - assured it was clear of feathers, however when went up to room this wasn’t the case. Went down, explained at which point after many discussions (explaining that I’m allergic to feather bedding over and over (as we had with the booking) I was offered another room which apparently was better (but the guy on reception didn’t seem to understand my question as to whether the new room would be free from feathers ….!) Went up to the room and of course it had feather bedding. We moved all of our luggage into the new room and my OH went down to reception this time and the same guy simply didn’t understand what we were explaining so OH requested another member of staff who did understand second time around. (Later bedding was all replaced which was then fine. ) the surprising thing was they had members of staff on reception whose English wasn’t quite up to basic requests (unusual for anywhere in Scandinavia) (while admitting my Norwegian is non-existent!) The bathroom was possibly the smallest I have ever witnessed, albeit it did have a bath with shower over. All v clean and fully functional. The pool and sauna were ok but a little small, but if you timed it you could use them. Generally the staff were a little slow (perhaps the hotel doesn’t have enough staff currently to service guests?) and service alone would put me off coming to stay here again unfortunately.

I really enjoyed my 2 nights stay in Oslo Citybox. It’s superbly conveniently located minutes from the train station. Plenty of food nearby and couple of minutes from the main shopping street including the luxury brands. There is a foosball table, table tennis table, darts for family fun, in addition to card games and chess. There’s a kitchen where kettle and microwave are available, in addition to vending machine for small snacks. Highly recommended!

Professional and excellent front desk staff, can answer all your questions. Breakfast is very rich. The location is very convenient, right opposite the central train station and central subway station, and very close to the airport express, the express to the airport is 240 NOK for adults and 120 NOK for 12-year-old children, and it takes 22 minutes to get to the airport. This hotel is really close to everything. I also recommend the salmon, which is delicious. We didn't make a reservation and went directly to eat. The room was a bit cold, but it was clean and unique.

Room is big and clean. The receptionist is very friendly and welcome. The location is very close to the station. Easy to find and get train to airport. The washroom is very big. They don’t have water heater for boiling water only is the disadvantage. Overall, this hotel is very well recommended.

I would really have liked to have given this a five star review, because the reception staff were super friendly, making sure I knew where the tourist attractions were and how to get there on my first day and letting me use the toilet when I popped back on my last day well after I’d checked out, as well as giving me a room with a phenomenal view of the fjord, but a couple of things took the shine off for me. One was the lack of air con. I mis-understood how hot Oslo could be, which is kind of on me and not the hotel BUT the DIY open window and fan arrangement weren’t entirely satisfactory, and while I was in my room, I never felt entirely comfortable with how hot I was. I guess the opposite could also be true if you can’t control how hot or cold your room gets in winter (when I assume my imaginings of snow drifts is actually a thing). Secondly was the breakfast. I can in no way fault the food - smoked salmon, scrambled eggs, bread, carrot cake (always a joy, whatever the time of day), melon, cheese and ham, but trying to find a table was sometimes impossible. It was particularly difficult for me as a solo traveller. It involved getting up early, crossing my fingers and piling everything on my plate in one go, just in case. Some days it was fine, but one day, after walking what felt like the entire length of the shopping centre getting increasingly dispondent, I had to perch on the end of a table with a group of pensioners who were staying there after two weeks travelling up and down Scandinavia together on train. Fortunately I am mature enough to be able to make small talk, but I can see how it wouldn’t go down so well with everyone else. Coffee was also a hit hit and miss - I was only offered some two out of four days. These little quirks are a real shame, because the location is great (handy for the train and city centre tourist attractions), and as I say, the staff on reception were lovely (and based on what I heard while I was standing in line, some of the other guests can be quite demanding). If I’m in Oslo again, I would definitely consider staying here again (but maybe bring a handheld fan or multiple layers of clothing, depending on the season) and maybe avoiding the breakfast.

Stayed at this hotel next to the railway station. Absolutely convenient. Near to pedestrian street, many eateries. Front desk was super efficient and helpful !

Hotel just right to the main station, 5 mins walk away. love that there was a luggage room so no need to worry if you arrived early. however there was a hiccup during our stay. where my friend forgot her small pillow at the hotel and when we emailed to ask there were no answer untill few days later with nothing was found in the room, couple of days later they found the pillow and send to us with charge, at least it was found. thanks to housekeeping and the management team.

When I checked in, the front desk didn't check that I paid on Ctrip, so I made a mistake... I received a refund when I returned to the room (I saw some reviews saying this, so friends who check in should pay attention) But everything else is good! The service at the front desk and the restaurant is very nice The room is not big but very clean (please bring your own toiletries and slippers, which are not provided here in Northern Europe) Breakfast is one of the highlights here. The omelette mixed with mashed potatoes is worth trying. The other flavors are also very good and rich! And not very salty... God knows I would be killed by the salt in Norway The location is also very good, 5 minutes walk to the train station, next to Munch and the Opera House There is a Japanese ramen restaurant nearby, which is also delicious~ In short, it is a good choice

A bit far from the central station But the room is warm and nice Bathroom is a bit weird that the water would spread out of the showering area However, they provide free tea all the time Breakfast is always crowded and the quality is just ok, coffee was awful

The room was average, but the view was amazing. The port was right outside the window. Every day when I opened the curtains, the view outside the window was fascinating. Other services were at the normal level of European hotels.
